I had a lovely Mother’s Day. The weather was spectacular. It felt like I was living inside a pointillist or Impressionistic painting, as the trees were dotted with new leaves and brushstrokes of color were evident everywhere. The violin solo during the offertory at church was so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes. (I am informed that it was “Love’s Promise” by Elgar.) Next I was taken out to lunch for a delicious salmon salad on arugula with mango, jicama, avocado and goat cheese, as seen below. In the afternoon we visited the nursery to spend a Christmas gift certificate from my sister on three orange azalea bushes. The flowers there were stunning. At home, our front porch received it’s chairs, the side porch screens, and our picnic table its umbrella. Spring is really here at last!
